Norfolk Gerygone, Gerygone modesta, is a passerine of the Acanthizidae family that breeds on Norfolk Island, east of Australia. It was described by Pelzeln in 1860. The bird is part of the Australasian warblers and is confined to that island in Australasia. A notable feature is its larger bill than the related grey gerygone. It has also been treated by some authorities as one of a combined species with the grey gerygone.
